Brickell Academy

Brickell Academy is a boutique private school in the heart of Miami's dynamic Brickell financial district, providing an American curriculum education for students aged 4 to 14. The school was founded to serve the growing number of internationally mobile families relocating to Brickell and the surrounding urban core, offering a rigorous academic program in an intimate, community-oriented setting. The school follows the Common Core State Standards enriched with a bilingual English-Spanish immersion strand that begins in Pre-Kindergarten. This dual-language approach reflects the reality of daily life in Miami, where English and Spanish coexist in business, government, and culture. Students graduate with strong literacy and communication skills in both languages, a significant advantage for secondary education and beyond. The campus is housed in a renovated commercial building adapted specifically for educational use, featuring bright, modern classrooms with interactive technology, a dedicated science laboratory, a well-stocked library, an art studio with gallery space, and a rooftop playground with shaded play areas. While Brickell's urban setting means outdoor space is limited, the school supplements its facilities with regular field trips to nearby Biscayne Bay, Vizcaya Museum and Gardens, and the Phillip and Patricia Frost Museum of Science. Brickell Academy holds accreditation from the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS/Cognia), confirming its alignment with nationally recognized educational standards. The school maintains small class sizes of 14 to 18 students, ensuring personalized instruction and close teacher-student relationships. The faculty includes educators with Florida teaching certification and international experience, many of whom are native Spanish speakers. Specialist instruction is provided in music, visual arts, physical education, and technology. An after-school enrichment program offers coding, chess, dance, and competitive swimming. Annual tuition ranges from USD 20,000 to USD 35,000. The school's central Brickell location provides easy access via Metrorail and Metromover, making it particularly convenient for working parents in downtown Miami and the surrounding neighborhoods of Mary Brickell Village, The Roads, and Key Biscayne.
